Do you have any old laptops / phones / tablets? If so you can drop them at Denton Island community Centre in their ‘Tech takeback’ bin so they can be re-purposed and reused.

Tools with a Mission

We are very grateful to the many people who have donated items for our Library of Things

If you still have spare tools we are in contact with an organisation called Tools with a Mission who send tools in working condition to countries in the developing world.

You can read more about them here: https://www.twam.uk/

There’s a local representative in Peacehaven called Gerard where you can donate your tools to – just check the list for what items they accept first

Get in touch with us if you have anything you’d like to donate to them and we can put you in touch

We’re delighted that Sainsburys have installed a ‘Maybelline’ recycling bin for toiletries and cosmetics. This is the same scheme which Boots in Brighton use – so you can now recycle empty tubes, compacts and other makeup packaging EXCEPT FOR:
• Glass bottles (e.g. foundation bottles and cream eyeshadow jars)
• Makeup brushes
• Aerosol containers
• Wooden eye pencils
• Nail varnish
